Osiris Fraternal Order

Although as stated earlier in the thread I fundamentally disagree with the overarching infrastructure of proscription at this moment (even if it was necessary in September), I do believe that Adytus' proposal is an improvement and as such I fully intend to vote for it. However, I am particularly concerned by the continued proscription of regions hosting outposts of the Grey Wardens, as I do not believe that they pose the security threat that much of the leadership of the Grey Wardens poses to Osiris. Specifically, it is my interpretation (as this may not be shared by others, I would request a clarification in language to remove any ambiguities or an opinion from the Council of Priests on this matter) that members of outposts are considered to be members of the Order of the Grey Wardens for the purposes of this law, and thus prohibited from becoming citizens by virtue of both their membership in the Wardens and their membership in an outpost. Accordingly, I do not believe that an additional proscription is necessary, as it unnecessarily prohibits civilian members of outposts (i.e., Mordor as the only active outpost as far as I can tell, which is home to an active roleplaying community) from contributing to Osiris despite the fact that they are not members of any organization whose leadership arguably threatens the security of Osiris. It can be argued that Wardens threaten Osiran security given the statements and actions of their leadership, but civilian members of regions such as Mordor don't threaten Osiran security.

Yeah, that can be cleared up. What other regions have outposts, if any?

I agree. It would make the process more clear by letting the Pharaoh decide. The Pharaoh's power over security is important to the region.

According to the Grey Wardens' forum (although other regions may privately host outposts, I am unaware if this is a case as I do not have an account on their forum), the other two regions that have outposts are SSR and SHIELD and Audaxia. SSR and SHIELD is virtually dead (founderless region with one nation) and Audaxia is wholly nonexistent. Looking at Eluvatar's WFE archive, however, Audaxia appeared to move to a region called Satius. However, Satius' use of the Neutral and Independent tags, combined with the fact that there is no indication of an outpost on their forum. Thus, I think it's probably safe to say that Mordor is the only region with an outpost at this moment.

Then I do not have a problem cutting that line from the proposal. Does anyone else have an argument about it?

I motion Adytus's proposal to a vote

I don't see why we need the PRO law in there still. I understand that Tim's comment sounded like a threat to us but I do know that he cares about Osiris and her wellbeing and would not try to "burn it to the ground." There are many members of the Grey Wardens that have mentioned to me that they want to join Osiris and contribute to the community (we are the best, after all) but they aren't allowed to do so because of this law. I think that's sort of messed up, and I think adding certain individuals to a list as an exception would be tedious.

The I know Tim has said this, wants that is just hearsay now with all the opinions about it and him. I cannot trust any of it. And there are several Wardens that think the other way. I have zero pity for people that want to join an organization that has claimed openly they would destroy us.

So please, explain to me how they could "burn [Osiris] to the ground" if we let them back in. I am just curious.

I don't see the point in keeping it, yet passing legislation that allows us to make exceptions. It should be all or none, and I'd prefer the latter.
